this city. These young ladies were Miss
Winger's intimates al school. and the recep-

the south parlor. and they made an at
tractive and graceful group. Miss Winger
wore sesfoam green. Miss Falconer Val
enciennes lace and lavender surah. Miss
Sperry Chantilly lace and diamonds, Miss
Jones pink nuns yelling. Miss
Caldwell cream flannel, and Miss
McClung white silk grenadine
over surah. A more charming sextette
of little maids from school" would be diff
fcult to select.
About one hundred guests were present
many of them in full party dress, and the
combination of the equisite toilets, the
lights, and the floral decorations. made
spectacle Of exceeding brilliancy. The
weather was extremely hot but the house
il large and spacious, and there was by no
means the dreaded crush that characteriZes
many large parties.

A feature of the evening was the distri-
button of slips of paper upon
which was written word OF a sentence.
This word was supposed to afford the recip-
lent . subject of conversation, upon which
he or she was by duty bound to talk. The
subjects were of such a nature as THE
Rebel Flags" THE Fidelity Band" ''Wo-
man Suffrage" etc. and produced some
animated discussions. Happy indeed was
the citizen who drew 'The Weather"
